The links for previous year’s new arrivals link to my old website, as I didn’t feel like rebuilding all of the old pages.

A note regarding pricing – It’s not random, or set on a whim. We have been working hard to bring in and breed high quality animals, and our prices will follow a formula that reflects that. All bucks will be wethered at 8 weeks old if they are not reserved as bucks by that time.

All wethers will be priced at $150 each, or $250 for a pair.

All does and intact bucks will be priced based on the accomplishments of their dam. With the increase in hay and grain prices, I raised my prices last year, but I try to keep it affordable, so will not be raising it further at this time.  I have to be able to afford to keep my goats, so may have to go up again in the future.  Pricing is as follows​:


Base Price: $400
*M in butterfat and/or protein: +$50
*M in production: +$50
E in mammary: +$50
Champion win: +$50 (max 4)
SG: +$50
LA 90 or above: +$50

Twins – 1 girl, 1 boy

After all of the losses it’s nice to get some more healthy babies. And oh my is the little girl full of herself! This is a repeat breeding, which I love the doe I kept from that and look forward to seeing her freshen soon. It is so tempting to keep this girl too, but I need to keep my numbers down. Kami will be on test this year, and if the older sister to these two freshens the way I think she will, the boy may be available as a buck.

GraniteAcres EC Atlanta 6*M x MT Rivendells Standing Ovation *B

March 30, 2023

Triplets – 2 girls (1 deceased), 1 boy

One of the girls was born with a lot of excess fluid in her belly and lived only a few hours, so I am guessing she had something internally that didn’t develop quite right. The other 2 are the first kids from Standing Ovation that we have had born that are strong, normal-sized, and thriving. Because of the issues we had with kids out of this buck I will be wethering the buckling.

Twins – 2 boys

I’m so bummed that both of these babies are boys. I absolutely would have kept a girl from this cross. They’re healthy though, so at least we have that.

April 13, 2023

Single – 1 boy

Drama decided to kid a day before her due date. I got home from work and was going to check on the new babies in the barn, but did a quick scan of the field like I usually do, and noticed a baby standing next to Drama. And of course it’s a boy. Because what else would I get from her?

R17 – GraniteAcres RC ? – buckling – Available $550

GraniteAcres WB Rowan Blanchrd x Rakkasan Ranch APA Cluster *B

April 15, 2023

Twins – 2 boys

Rowan’s first baby came out with minimal fuss, but the 2nd was tail first, with his back feet folded towards his front. This is a very difficult position for them to deliver, though I have pulled some like that and gotten through it. Unfortunately, it was a good size baby, and Rowan just didn’t have the space. We were finally able to get him pushed back in enough to hook his back legs, and get him coming out feet first, though still backwards. We worked on him, got him up, and made sure he ate, but he ended up passing away. The other baby is doing very well, and getting nice and fat.

Lahaina managed to hold off until she was left alone for a half hour, and delivered these two. Pretty uneventful, which was nice.

April 18, 2023

Triplets – 3 boys

Denali was huge, so I knew she was going to have at least triplets, and was hoping not quads. She delivered between when my sister had to leave, and my son got home. The last was the biggest, and his tendons were a bit contracted from lack of space, but with some time and stretching they stretched out, and he is fine

GraniteAcres EC Delphinium x Gaelic Roots CW Lucky Strike *B

April 25, 2023

Single – 1 boy

Unfortunately Delphinium only had the one baby, and she waited until day 150, so he got very big. He was badly positioned, and though we realized right away that there was an issue and stepped in to help get him out, the baby inhaled a lot of fluid. I worked on him for several minutes, trying to get the fluid out, and get him to start breathing, but ultimately he didn’t make it.

Quads – 1 girl, 3 boys

3 boys, all in bad positions, but all safely out, and healthy. Followed by the lone girl in the bunch, properly positioned, came out perfectly, but a little deformed. Looks like she was a little squished with all the crowding, so her neck developed turned a little to the side, and tweaked up. She’s very healthy otherwise. She’s not able to nurse, so has been bottle fed from the very beginning, has a great appetite, and gets around just fine.

Almar Acres Sky’s Wild Rose x MT Rivendells Standing Ovation *B

May 3, 2023

Triplets – 3 boys (deceased)

I’m so grateful to be done with the kids from Stanley. Wild Rose was 9 days early, and I only realized she had kidded when we were doing night chores, and I saw her standing eating with a sac hanging from her with a tiny dead baby in it. She’d been big enough for me to be pretty sure she was having multiples, so I went looking and found 2 tiny babies that had already passed, but were too premature for me to have pulled them through anyway. We broke the sac for the last since it was still just hanging on, and found a completely hairless baby. The other 2 were fully haired, so this one obviously had something wrong with it, and my guess is that it died, causing her to go into labor early, so we lost the other 2 as well. Even worse, Wild Rose had seemed fine, she seemed to have cleaned out all the way, but 4 days later when I was doing night chores, she seemed a little off. She didn’t get up and come to eat right away, but she did get up, so I figured I’d keep an eye on her, make sure she bounced back. The next day when I was outside with my daughter, I was looking over my pastures as I do any time I’m out, and noticed she was lying down in the far field. Something made me go right out to check on her. I found her laying in a strange position, and obviously dying. There was no time for me to do anything, she passed within 2 minutes of me getting there. I believe that because she wasn’t actually ready to go into labor, despite it seeming that she cleaned out, she most likely had a piece of the placenta retained, and ended up getting an infection that went to sepsis. It’s so hard to lose the babies, but even worse to lose the moms as well.
